Guidelines & Resources
A note about our online theory exams...
In the offline format, the candidate has the option of answering some questions either in the treble clef or in the bass clef. This does not apply to the online format. Instead, a mix of questions in both the treble clef and the bass clef is asked in the online format. The option to choose a preferred clef is therefore not possible in the online format.
